Four-Wire Video Intercom Systems
For a short distance of about 150ft. between the video doorphone and the indoor video receiver (TV set or modulator) you may safely use CAT5 twisted-pair wire. Beyond that distance up to about 800ft. use CAT5 with two mini video baluns if you want to keep it simple. Practically no signal degradation.

You may always use RG6, RG56 or RG59 coax cabling for all distances, which is the standard cabling for video transmission. Strongly recommended to use coax for distances over 1000 ft.

Note that a second pair of wires is needed to bring power to the camera. When running CAT5 cabling use a second twisted pair within the cable for that purpose. When using coax cabling you may either use coax (RG59U) that carries the extra 2 wires within the cable or run a separate cable.
